The Origen of Melodies

what do we say tonight,

my sweet beloved?

tonight we feast on dreams

and on shadows.

tonight we bury the dead.

tonight we face a new dawn

of swirling tides

and flows of rain and wind.

tonight we fill our bellies

with laughter and lilacs.

we kiss the sky

and thank it for dancing with us

one more song.

we embrace the sweet gifts

cascading from the heavens

to our very breast.

- our very breast.

we dance the night away

and let her rest.

we sing songs

of the magic

of winter coming.

we see the rain

for its symphonic wonder.

we open our mouths

wide

and sing

and swallow

our joys

and our spells

for a beautiful tomorrow.

the songs are free.

the songs are free.

they’re for you and for me.
